I have been looking for a dive shop to get certified and I called Rick up at Depth Perception Dive Services up enjoyed talking with him about my intentions and he was very helpful informing me of everything that I needed to know and told me to come to the shop and look around and talk with him try masks on. Really nice guy willing to help me out with any questions I might have. Can’t wait to see the shop and looking forward to meeting the crew.

Chuck and crew are awesome, Took my open water cert there years ago.
Service on equipment is fast and thorough. Chuck can get you back into the water fast and safely. His instructors are people oriented and not just looking for a fast dollar, they really have their act together.
If you need a refresher, a tank service or gear repairs Depth Perceptions is your shop.

Chuck is an awesome guy. I just ran through SLO for some dives with a friend, and we went to Depth Perceptions for tanks and some random knick-​knacks. Chuck was a really helpful and pointed us in the direction of some great diving on a pretty nasty weekend.
Also, I lost some some gear while diving, so I left my info with him and description of the item lost. This morning he called, telling me the good news that it was found and that he’d hold it for my buddy to pick up. What are the chances?!
Anyway Chuck is a great guy, really helpful. Good selection of gear, but more importantly, what he has is very reasonably priced. I’ve been to many shops and looked online a lot, and Depth Perceptions prices are pretty good for a small dive shop. If you are in the area, I highly recommend that you check out Depth Perceptions and chat with Chuck. Just as a side note, this seems to be a one man operation, so be sure to call ahead to make sure he’s in.
